The Albanian qualifiers are revealed!

At the end of the second semi final this evening, the qualifiers from the semi finals were announced. As the semi final split and running order was decided randomly, it was decided that rather than having nine qualifiers from each semi final, the juries would look at the 30 songs as a whole. It was originally announced that 18 songs would participate in the final, but in the end, 11 songs qualified from each semi final, making a total of 22 songs in the final.

The 22 qualifiers are:

ADRIAN LULGJURAJ – Jeto dhe ëndërro

SIGI BASTRI – Engjëll i lirë

DILAN REKA – Buzëqsh

Languages. Flags. Numbers. Three of my favourite things. So it’s really no surprise that I am a fan of the Eurovision Song Contest! I’ve been obsessed since 1989 when I turned on the TV to see this strange show with people from different countries singing in different languages wearing sparkly outfits and then voting on each other’s songs! I was instantly hooked! I’ve now been to ten Eurovision and looking forward to number eleven in Israel. My favourite Eurovision song of all time is ‘Quand je te rêve’ by Céline Carzo (Luxembourg 1990). I’m pretty sure no one else can say the same thing!
